Although it's not really an issue especially with the excellent gtk-qt-engine port, I'm interested if anyone has ever tried to build Firefox with qt. There was some talk about a qt version a while ago but that has gone quiet http://dot.kde.org/1094924433/.

I'm not happy with the gtk-qt-engine thing up tot he last versions I've encountered on BSD...

Seeing Firefox in Qt natively would be kind of cool but unnecessary. When they have such an amount of code already working there isn't much point, especially since GTK+ and Qt are very much on most *nix desktop distros.

I've never touched GTK's API beyond C but find Qt very likeable in every language.

Fwiw, I've heard of the people of KDE and those of GNOME trying to find a common play ground.
Keep in touch, mail me in 10 years when both are gone.
IMHO, those WMs are a bridge too far and competing for the worst code since NetBEUI.

Why would you want to run firefox in QT in the first place? It may have some advantages over QT (And GTK may have some over QT), but most of those are probably "under the hood", as an end-user, why do you care?

Integration with the rest of the look and feel of KDE, getting rid of the GTK save dialogue boxes.
